Whistle Foggy Head Light...

Common X5 problem is starting over here. My drivers-side headlight plastic is beginning to "haze" over. This isn't a "wipe-away" haze...it's on the inside of the sealed headlight housing. I have Bi-Xenon adaptive headlights. Anyone selling this quality used part? Or, does anyone have the BMW part number for it? I know it runs upward of $1000.00 from BMW. It's bugging me, a hazy pair of angel eyes makes me feel like I have a blurry contact in.

2006 BMW X5 4.4L

There are a few different options for the Bi-Xenon adaptive headlights for the X5, if you have the last 7 digits of your vin I can help you find the correct oem part on our website for your X5.

Check the last 7 again right quick make sure you didn't have a typo. The last 7 digits of a BMW vin is usually two letters then 5 numbers.

Bingo! That's a winning combination! I've found two bi-Xenon headlamp possibilities for your car. The difference between the two is one headlamp has White direction indicator lights and the other does not.

With White direction indicator lights

Without White direction indicator lights

yesir. and it is a documented BMW issue, but NOT a recall.

...sure because why would my lack of night vision by original BMW equipment warrant a safety recall?
